Because Millenial1992 truly died… Millenial1992 didn’t make it.

I hope there is no castlevania in the future, in the pasts that both Castlevania and Street Fighter Ex ruined my life, I hate to suffer, distress, and rougher life.

my phones for the last two decades

just a celebration of mundane materialism

It got smaller. (For those of you in the know, yes, I waited nearly 10 years before getting a new phone because I want, no, need an Android phone that fits in my pocket. I don't need a big screen, just a nice pair of earbuds or a good BT speaker. I listen to my porn instead of watching them.)

Or maybe not.

I have no good reason for putting the Saiyuki boys on the wallpaper, except that I like Sensei's art. I hardly listen to the Drama CDs anymore, because I listened to them so many times between 2021 and 2022 I am now just sick of them.

BUT, I owe everything (especially my mental health and overall state of happiness today) to Saiyuki. If I had not chosen to rekindle my love for this franchise by downloading some random Saiyuki Drama CD from youtube, I would not have been introduced to the Wild Adapter series. And if I had not gotten into a KuboToki obsession, I would not have been tempted to seek out BL Drama CDs featuring the same set of VAs on aarinfantasy. As they say, one thing leads to another....

In short, Saiyuki was the indirect cause of me owning 20 GB (1 weeks' worth) of BL Drama CDs on multiple drives. These are mostly from the late 1990s up to the late 2000s, because most of the VAs in the Minekura franchise were, well, active during that period.

I also have tons of CD Dramas starring Miki Shin'ichirou and as many as I can find that feature the late Shiozawa Kaneto, but for this I blame Yami no Matsuei and Ai no Kusabi ;)

[blueiight]

i like how the tragedy in ai no kusabi isnt even ‘bury ur gays’ (bc ceres is literally gay capital of tanagura and being gay is normal in their world) but more ‘this machine became a man through the force of his obsessive love that he had for a slumlord he made his slave’.….

Hey people has anyone read Full Moon by Shiozawa Takatoshi? Because that manga felt like a fever dream and there's so little content/info about it online that I wonder if anyone else actually knows about it.

Let's do another 澤 name today! The surname 塩澤 is usually read Shiozawa, as it is here, but with possibility of Shiosawa or Shiojiri.

塩 means salt. It’s read しお or エン.

澤, as we reviewed yesterday, is mostly used in proper nouns. In common vocabulary, it appears as 沢. Both characters mean blessing/grace, brilliant/glossy, or swamp/marsh. They're read さわ, うるお.い, うるお.す, つや, or タク.

So this is a surname that means salt marsh! However, I have just learned that the actual translation of salt marsh is 塩沼 【えんしょう】 , literally salt swamp. Which can also be a surname, in which case it's read Shionuma. Simple, right?

Summary:

This is the 12th special animated program for "24-hour Television: Ai wa Chikyu wo Sukuu." The first half of the story is an autobiographical animated piece focused on the episode in which the young boy Tezuka Osamu becomes attracted to the Chinese animated work "Tessen Koshu." Then it uses some episodes from Son-goku to depict how he eventually becomes an animation writer. The latter half is a new science fiction version of Son-goku set against a background of Planet Sapphire in the Galaxy of 3010. This is one of Tezuka Osamu's posthumous works. He unfortunately passed away during the planning stages.

At the world premiere, Takamasa Matsutani, president of Japan's "Tezuka Animation Production Co., Ltd.", accepted an interview with the "International Herald Herald". He revealed a rather touching past incident.

Osamu Tezuka began to create this different Sun Wukong in 1952, and made it into a comic "My Son Goku" and serialized it in a magazine. When creating, Osamu Tezuka also considered using the image of Peking Opera facial makeup, but in the end he making Sun Wukong like a bear perhaps to show the difference. When he died in 1989, he left the draft of the animated film "My Son Goku" in the world. This was also Osamu Tezuka's last animated work.

The indissoluble bond between Osamu Tezuka and Sun Wukong dates back to when he was in middle school. At that time, he watched the cartoon "Princess Iron Fan" produced by the brothers Wan Laiming, the founder of Chinese animation, and made up his mind to make animation his lifelong career. Therefore, there were later cartoons and animated characters such as "Astro Boy" and "Jungle King" that grew up with a generation. It was his comics and animations that saved the Japanese animation industry, which was on the verge of collapse at the time. "My Son Goku" also records the friendship between Osamu Tezuka and Wan Laiming.

Matsutani Takamasa said: "Mr. Wan is the person that Mr. Tezuka respects and admires the most. Many people think that Mr. Tezuka is more influenced by Disney animation. In fact, he was influenced earlier by Chinese animation, especially Mr. Wan's animation, and more profound.” In 1988, Osamu Tezuka came to China and paid a special visit to Wan Laiming, who was already in his seventies. After returning to Japan, Tezuka Osamu completed the draft of his last animated film "My Son Goku" and wrote "This is my Son Goku" on the title page. "After he visited Mr. Wan, he already knew that he would die soon and completed "My Son Goku". Before his death, he used his work to say hello to Mr. Wan and tell Mr. Wan, 'I'm going.'" When he said this, Matsutani Xiaozheng's tone was a little heavy.

In 2003, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Astro Boy's birth, Tezuka released the cartoon "My Son Goku", to which Osamu Tezuka devoted special emotions to.
